There is a saying that all work and no play makes one dull. Work is important, but everyone needs free time. Free time is a time for anything that interests you. Some people like to play sports, such as basketball, football or tennis. Others like to go to interesting places, such as zoos, museums or parks. Many people have hobbies. They make things or collect things in their free time.
If you want to make things, you can make model ships or planes, sweaters or clothes, cake or milk shake. If you like to collect things, you can collect stamps, books, leaves or coins. It doesn ' t matter what you make or collect. Of course, you can also choose to do things like listening to music, seeing movies.
Hobbies can make you feel relaxed. Some work and some play will make your life interesting,
too.
